    Lyrics:
    Magnolia
    She could have anyone in the world
    Floats around town in a golden gown
    Born in a castle on a cloud
    Magnolia
    Prettiest girl that I know
    Stars in her eyes
    Hand picked from the skies
    Beautiful soul
    How can I compete with her
    Perfection is the only word
    I think of when i think of Magnolia
    She doesn’t know that the world is turning just for her
    I wish I could be Magnolia
    Magnolia
    She can move oceans and rivers with ease
    A word from her lips
    Her sirens kiss
    Will send you straight into abyss
    Magnolia
    I wish she’d give her secrets away
    Enchants everyone
    And I think it’d be fun
    To be like her someday
    But I cannot compete with her
    Perfection is the only word
    I think of when I think of Magnolia
    She doesn’t know that the world is turning just for her
    I wish I could be Magnolia
    Magnolia

    Magnolia
    she could have anyone in the world
    Floats around town in a golden gown
    Born in a castle on a cloud
    Magnolia
    prettiest girl that I know
    Stars in her eyes, handpicked from the sky
    Beautiful soul
    How can I compete with her
    Perfection is the only word
    I think of when I think of Magnolia
    She doesn't know that the world is turning just for her
    I wish I could be Magnolia
    ooooh.... haaa ooooh....
    Magnolia
    she can move oceans and rivers with ease
    A word from her lips
    Her sirens kiss
    Will send you straight into abyss
    Magnolia

      She does not belong in this ugly and depraved decade.
      In the 50s she would have been a super star, she is in the same league as Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee or Nat King Cole.
      Her beautiful voice is a mixture between Jo Stafford and June Christy.
